How Deep Argo Will Improve the Deep Ocean in an Ocean Reanalysis [PDF]
Journal of Climate, 2020 AbstractGlobal ocean sampling with autonomous floats going to 4000–6000 m, known as the deep Argo array, constitutes one of the next challenges for tracking climate change. The question here is how such a global deep array will impact ocean reanalyses. Based on the different behavior of four ocean reanalyses, we first identified that large uncertainty ...

The Deep Ocean's Carbon Exhaust
Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 2021 The deep ocean naturally releases large amounts of old, pre-industrial carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere through upwelling in the Southern Ocean, closing the global ocean carbon cycle. This Southern Ocean CO2 release is relevant to the global climate, because its changes could alter atmospheric CO2 levels on long time scales and the present-day ...

Nature Communications, 2022 Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) resources provide a renewable solution to fuel our future. Here the authors show a significant increase of OTEC resources under greenhouse warming with the increasing rate regulated by oceanic eddies.

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023 Tropical Atlantic (TA) SST variability can impact the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM). Here, we find that the interannual EASM–TA relationship exhibits an evident interdecadal variation modulated by the Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation (IPO).

Oceanic mesoscale eddies as crucial drivers of global marine heatwaves
Nature Communications, 2023 Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are prolonged extreme warm water events in the ocean, exerting devastating impacts on marine ecosystems. A comprehensive knowledge of physical processes controlling MHW life cycles is pivotal to improve MHW forecast capacity, yet ...

The Ocean Takes a Deep Breath [PDF]
Science, 2004 Deep convection is the major mechanism for replenishing oxygen in the deep interior of the world ocean, and its variability affects the use of atmospheric oxygen to monitor the global carbon cycle. Sensors mounted on autonomous floats allow this episodic breathing of the ocean to be monitored in near real time.

Open-ocean polynyas and deep convection in the Southern Ocean [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractAn open-ocean polynya is a large ice-free area surrounded by sea ice. The Maud Rise Polynya in the Southern Ocean occasionally occurs during the austral winter and spring seasons in the vicinity of Maud Rise near the Greenwich Meridian. In the mid-1970s the Maud Rise Polynya served as a precursor to the more persistent, larger Weddell Polynya ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Two typical classes of cyclones originating from the tropics (ToCs) and extratropics (EoCs) with distinct preconditions, and passing the Kuroshio Extension (KE) region in cold season in the North Pacific are detected and tracked based on high‐resolution ...
